Step up to the challenge with WalkOver PWS

JHorsfall • 5 March 2020

Details of the first WalkOver PWS events of 2020 have been announced. 

Due to popular demand, our WalkOver PWS sponsored walks return again this year, providing an excellent opportunity to get active, while also raising awareness of PWS as well as funds to support the important work that we do at PWSA UK.

Starting at 11am, each event involves a 4km walk around a beautiful park setting, followed by a bring-your-own picnic lunch and then activities in the afternoon.

Events confirmed so far are:

- Saturday 2nd May 2020 - Gunswade Trail, Nene Park, Peterborough
- Sunday 24th May 2020 - Alexandra Park, St Helen's Road, Hastings
- Sunday 14th June 2020 - Oglivie Lake, Cwm Darren Park, Bargoed

Entrance is £5, including a WalkOver PWS T-shirt and a medal.

We are also planning a walk in Yorkshire on a date to be confirmed, so watch this space for further details. We would also looking to hold walks in Scotland, the South West and central England, and would love to hear from anyone who could support us in finding suitable sites and encouraging participation.

For further information on this or any of the WalkOver events listed above, please contact Karen on kwilkinson@pwsa.co.uk or Louise on ldonovan@pwsa.co.uk.
